CHIVHU – Several homesteads and institutions
were devastated by heavy rains and strong winds that ravaged Chivhu town late
yesterday (November 15), TellZim News can report.
Liebenberg
High School was left in tatters after six block rooms were destroyed and
asbestos roofs were wiped away.
The
old National Foods depot was destroyed and much of the roof was shattered while
the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC) offices
suffered the same fate.
Many
houses in Charuma residential area and surrounding places were also damaged.
Ten
families at the Zimbabwe Prison and Correctional Services (ZPCS) cottages were destituted
and had to seek shelter at the police station after their houses were
destroyed.
 ZPCS officers who spoke to TellZim News were
in grief but they were pleased that no life was lost.
 “We have so far send distress calls to
Marondera and we expect them to come urgently together with the Civil Protection
Unit (CPU). Things are not well as you can see and we need urgent assistance,”
said one ZPCS officer.
“Some
of us had to spend the night here at the police station but had to hire a guard
against thieves that usually take advantage of this kind of a situation. We
need urgent help because we have no shelter. We thank God that no one was
killed or injured,” said another officer.
